(France 2)
In Ukraine, the war has taken a major turn in recent days. Volodymyr Zelensky’s troops are conducting a major operation in the Kursk region, in Russian territory.
By releasing images of strikes, the Russian army wants to show that it is responding forcefully to the Ukrainian incursion into the Kursk region. In a statement published on Sunday, August 11, the Minister of Defense assures that he has prevented attempted Ukrainian breakthroughs by drone and artillery strikes.
The army commander-in-chief posted a photo on Telegram with the message: “We are continuing the operation.” After days of silence, Volodymyr Zelensky spoke about this offensive, launched last Tuesday. “I am grateful to each unit of our forces that is keeping watch. Ukraine proves that it can really enforce justice.”he said.
